Verizon VX9900 Official

Verizon today officially released LG's enV, also known as the VX9900. In addition to the device's signature, lengthwise clamshell design that reveals a full-length keyboard, the Verizon edition adds support for the carrier's own software features. Users can buy and play music or video from the V CAST service, the company says, or use the bundled VZNavigator GPS software for location tracking. The announcement partially confirms earlier pricing details, establishing a minimum price of $150 with a two-year service contract. Information regarding one-year and retail pricing was not provided as part of the announcement. The enV is shipping today.
